[Gateway] The FBI continues to make up reasons for why it can’t turn over information on Seth Rich’s murder. They just can’t be honest and tell us the truth. This has been going on for years.
This has literally been going on for years. Attorney Ty Clevenger has demanded the FBI provide documents related to their records on Seth Rich’s murder and the FBI continues to stall and refuse to cooperate.
We reported previously on December 9, 2020:
This story started with the release of emails by WikiLeaks related to the DNC and Hillary’s Campaign Manager creepy John Podesta. Within days, in June 2016, Ellen Nakashima, a Deep State favorite from the Washington Post, released a report that the Democrat National Committee (DNC) had been hacked by Russia. The firm that validated this was Crowdstrike and its President Shawn Henry confirmed the claims.

I think many of us quit suspecting there was Domestic Spying when the Patriot Act was passed and the USA Freedom Act of 2015 updated it.
A new set of rules – known as “Section 702” of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, allows the NSA, CIA, and FBI, to capture and search through millions of communications gathered with the assistance of American companies.
The Fed's even pay Social Media for data as needed.

'They just can't be honest and tell us the truth.'
The Famous But Incompetent version of telling the truth is having Whitey Bulger transferred, wheelchair oxygen and all to a very specific prison in general population just before he was scheduled to be interviewed.

One of the key points of the case (not political) is, he was murdered. Not by a robber, nothing was stolen. Someone likely on government payroll somewhere approved the job.
This is about part of the Democratic Party approving wet work on one of their own people.
Likely the people at the top didn't know about it. I accept that. Generally the mayor of a town doesn't know about a cop deciding to take a shortcut on a suspect. But somebody's supposed to be in charge.
The other thing is, if they'll do one their own "in" guys who's inconvienient, then the rest of us are basically firewood, to be used as needed.

I'm reading Black Mass right now. The FBI was without a doubt trying to make problem disappear. They'd have been better off letting Gerry Angiulo whack him over the $275,000 Whitey owed to the Angiulos for taking over the rackets after Howie Winter / Winter Hill gang got rolled up and sent to the can in 1979.
You want fun?
I just learned the father-in-law of my wife's niece [sister daughter] was diagnosed with Pancreatitis. "Poor bastard", I thought. He's in DC. I looked him up.
He's the 'CFO' of the House of Representative's, SGT of Arms. Paymaster for Nancy's 1/6 bullyboys.
He wrote the checks. Now that the balance has shifted he'll be "too sick to testify".
[AMGREATNESS - VDH] "Be assured young friend, that there is a great deal of ruin in a nation." — Adam Smith
Are we sure that there is all that much ruin left in the United States?
We are $31 trillion in collective debt. The new normal is $1.5 trillion budget deficits. The military is politicized and short of recruits. We trade lethal terrorists for woke celebrity athletes as if to confirm our enemies’ cynical stereotypes.
Our FBI is corrupt and discredited, collaborating with Silicon Valley contractors to suppress free speech and warp elections. We practice segregation and racial discrimination and claim we do not because the right and good people support it and, anyway, the victims deserve it. The country has seen defeat before but never abject, deliberate humiliation as in Kabul, when we fled and abandoned to the terrorist Taliban a $1 billion embassy, a huge, remodeled air base, thousands of friends, and tens of billions of dollars in military hardware—and hard-earned deterrence.
We are witnessing the breakdown of basic norms essential for civilized life, from affordable food and fuel to available key antibiotics and baby formula. Old Cairo seems safer than an after-hours subway ride or stroll at dusk in many major American cities. Medieval London’s roadways were likely cleaner than Market Street in San Francisco. Speech was freer in 1920s America than it is now.
The Breakdown of Basic Society
Our California always is a preamble to America’s future. Our present is likely your tomorrow.
Each summer here we impotently expect forest conflagrations. Millions of acres of flames pour more millions of tons of smoke and carbon and soot in the skies. Tens of millions of hated combustion engines cannot begin to match the natural blankets of aerial dirt.
The state seems to shrug it off, saying wildfires are both inevitable and natural. Old-fashioned forest management and fire-fighting strategies, honed over centuries, are deemed obsolete by our green experts. So, we let fiery nature take its better course. What is the implicit message to those in the way of fires that devour homes and trees? Nature’s way? Natural wood mulch? Or that such fools should not build their cabins or homes where they are not wanted?
What was bequeathed to us from a state of 15 million—magnificent aqueducts, once brilliantly designed freeways and airports, superb universities and schools, perfectly engineered reservoirs, and downtowns of majestic skyscrapers—in a California of 41 million are frozen in amber or in decay. They have few updates and even fewer replacements. The decrepitude recalls the weedy forums and choked fountains of Vandal-era Roman cities, which is what happens when a later parasitic generation mocks but still consumes what it inherits but cannot create.
Our own generation’s pale contributions are multibillion-dollar, quarter-built, graffiti-defaced high-speed rail Stonehenge monoliths. We prefer to shut down rather than build nuclear plants. Our solar battery plants are as prone to combust as they are to store electricity. And our urban streets reek of feces. All seem testaments to our incompetence, arrogance, and ignorance. We fear the idea of homelessness, and so cede to the homeless our downtowns and avoid what follows.
Our great universities, once the most esteemed in the world from Berkeley and Stanford to UCLA and USC, grow burdened with commissars, too many of their outnumbered faculties are weaponized, and their students have never been more confident in their abilities, and with so little reason for that confidence.
A return to syllabi and grading standards of just 30 years ago would result in mass flunkings. Failure on tests apparently means the test, not the test taker, is found wanting.
What follows is the erosion of meritocracy and competence. And that reality is starting to explain the great unraveling: why our bridges take decades to build rather than a few years, why train tracks are not laid after a decade of "planning,"and why to drive down a once brilliantly engineered, but now crammed and dangerous road is to revisit the "Road Warrior" of film. Sam Bankman-Fried and Elizabeth Holmes are the apt characters of our age.

"“Gradually and then suddenly.”
The warning signs are always there, even at the beginning. Over a period of years, sometimes decades, a tiny trickle of warning signs turns into a steady stream… and eventually a great flood.
Future innocents will curse our sloth in preserving the greatest nation in history, and the pale carcass we left them. Like many of my generation, I looked outward for the threat, and failed to see it was inside the wire for decades.

Typical GOP-e take. Talk the nicey nice talk of the board-room/faculty lounge so you can feel superior and cultured while every real person has to stand downhill for the $#!t to come tumbling down.
[PJ] In several previous articles, I addressed what I believe to be the crucial issue of our time, namely, the institutionalization of the lie in culture and politics. The situation shows no sign of abating and indeed grows more alarming with every passing day. The integrity of the information we receive about domestic and world affairs has been degraded almost beyond recognition. Reality has been denatured. For the Lie has become a systemic and indelible part of public and institutional life. The dilemma we now confront, as D. Stephen Long points out in an important book dealing with the relation between relativism and authoritarianism, is speaking truth in a post-truth world.
But the problem goes further than relativism; rather, it involves a substitution of absolutes, of an assumed truth for a genuine truth, replacing objective fact and data with a new paradigm of subterfuge, fable, and casuistry under the rubric of "truth." When lying acquires something like constitutional status, it becomes a phenomenon so deep it can be described, adopting the popular saying, as "turtles all the way down," now the title of an indispensable new book on vaccine science and myth, which reveals "how ineffectively and dishonestly the COVID pandemic was handled."
[ThrTruthAboutGuns] Many folks — cops included — load up their self-defense sidearm, and then those tools silently serve and protect their owners from bad people with evil in their hearts. Unfortunately, most of us don’t think about regularly rotating the personal defense ammunition in our carry gun. or think we need to.
Don’t let that be you.
How long ago did you put the cartridges you’re carrying in your EDC pistol? Six months ago? A year? Two years even?

I have seen jams and misfeeds in my Delta Elite 10 mm when leaving ammo in the clip and in the weapon for long durations. So I purchased a few extra clips, replaced the springs in the old mags, now rotate the mags in use monthly and test ammo occasionally.
Problem solved

I have fired 75+ year old (at that time) corrosive style ammo made around the WWI, in my Mauser w/o issue.

/\ Had a gunsmith tell me a story about an old lady who came in with a 191l belonging to her late husband. The gunsmith removed the mag, pointed the weapon to the ceiling, actioned the slide, and pulled the trigger.
Much to his surprise, the gun went off putting a .45 cal hole through his ceiling and the roof.

[News18] The Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems.... mostly attacks embassies, consulates, and diplomatic missions as they tend to generate lots of international media attention
Armed men opened fire inside a hotel in central Kabul that housed some Chinese citizens in the latest violence in Afghanistan as Taliban ...Arabic for students... tries to stabilise after the withdrawal of US-led foreign forces.
The firing was continuing in the hotel in the Shahr-e-Naw area and a fire broke out on one of the floors, the sources said, adding that they expect casualties.
Residents of the area said the attack was carried out at a building where Chinese and other foreigners usually stay. The shooting continued after they heard a powerful explosion.
The attack is one of the several attacks carried on embassies, hostels and places housing foreigners. Though no terror group have grabbed credit for the attacks, but it is believed to be carried out by the local offshoot of the Islamic State group, known as Islamic State - Khorasan Province (ISIS-K), which is infamous for carrying out such suicide kabooms.
Behind several of these attacks, the Islamic State (IS) has grabbed credit for the strikes.
The Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) is a transnational network that grew out of Pakistain and expanded its operational footprint into Afghanistan after the Taliban came to power.
The group is now Afghan-centric but remains active in parts of Pakistain. ISKP’s wars against the Pak and Afghan Taliban governments are comprised of interconnected kinetic Death Eater campaigns and media warfare efforts, according to a report in The Diplomat.
The terrorist group views the Taliban as a kind of vector for Pakistain to spread its influence in Afghanistan and accused the new government of "working hard to implement the Pak version of Islam designed by ISI and CIA in US intelligence headquarters of Qatar ...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi... The group mostly attacks embassies, consulates, and diplomatic missions as they tend to generate lots of international media attention.
ISKP CARRYING OUT ATTACKS SINCE 2016
Though the terrorist group is active post-Taliban takeover, the ISKP has been carrying out attacks as early as 2016.
In January 2016, the Islamic State carried out a suicide kaboom against the Pak consulate in the city of Jalalabad in Afghanistan. Three murderous Moslems wearing boom jackets detonated explosives and killed "several Pak intelligence officers" as well as dozens of people.
During 2021, there were multiple attacks on diplomatic targets in Jalalabad, including the liquidation of a Pak consulate member in July and a series of bombings near the Indian consulate that killed several Taliban.
In August 26, 2021, the group carried out the famous blast at the Kabul airport that caused mass casualties as Afghan nationals, foreigners and embassies were evacuating from Afghanistan.

[IsraelTimes] Party leader Keir Starmer is serious about eradicating bigotry — but after the previous head’s tenure, the well of public opinion about Jews may have already been poisoned.
Three years ago today, Jeremy Corbyn, the far-left leader of Britannia’s Labour party, suffered a devastating defeat in the country’s general election. With his leadership dogged by allegations of antisemitism, the Jewish community had viewed the prospect of a Corbyn premiership with fear and trepidation.
Today, Labour’s political prospects have been transformed. Under Keir Starmer, a moderate who has dragged the party back to the center ground, it holds a steady, 20-point lead in the polls. Likewise, relations with the Jewish community are being painstakingly rebuilt — even if some fear that the ghost of Corbynism has not yet been fully laid to rest.

[ZERO] The Dutch government plans to buy and close down up to 3,000 farms near environmentally sensitive areas to comply with EU nature preservation rules. I'm Bill Gates, and this is my world.
And what about the farmers who still believe in sovereignty and private property rights?
Well, the Dutch Government has something to say to those extremists. There is no better offer coming," Christianne van der Wal, nitrogen minister, told MPs on Friday. She said compulsory purchases would be made with "pain in the heart", if necessary.
All this is due to the scam of global warming... urgh I mean, climate change. Or is it "carbon emissions?"
I struggle to keep up. I’ve come to the conclusion that the earth is fine — it’s the people that are fukt.
Hegelian dialectic at work. Problem, action, solution. The Dutch government, which is merely a puppet of the unelected central planners, creates a food shortage problem.
The sheeple suffer the consequences and then hilariously look to that very government to "do something."
What are they going to do?
Well, that’s easy. They’re going to offer people poison in the form of "food." All patented. Watch!
Time to start a garden in the front yard and window boxes, replacing grass and geraniums. Add a rabbit hutch for meat.
What are the Central Planners going to do with all this stolen farmland?
The voluntary buyout scheme was "the only way to finally create opportunities for the construction of homes, the construction of new infrastructure and for projects to make the Netherlands more sustainable in the shortest possible time," said Ingrid Thijssen, chairman of VNO-NCW, an employers’ federation in the Netherlands.
Those refugees all need homes, too, you know? It’s all about "equality," folks. Shut up and stop complaining!
We remain long our food plays, which are fertilizer companies.
They’ve had a decent run from when we first started loading up some 3 years ago now, but if we’re right, this will be just part of the pullback before the next leg up.
Here are Mosaic and Nutrien, which I’m using as proxies for the sector. We own both.

Y'know what? I recommend cannibalism. Hunt and eat government workers. Two birds with one stone. Think about the good thousands of enraged cannibalistic Dutch farmers could do.
#5
The Dutch will still have enough food. Unfortunately they have a huge export market. Brown people will starve. The Netherlands will just lose a huge amount of revenue just as energy prices skyrocket. Christianne van der Wahl will be kicked out of office and be forced to retire to a life of beaches and ski results.

Having visited several times, never failed to be impressed by the fact that many, if not all farms had an excavator among the traditional equipment. As well as windmill to pump the water into canals for routing to the North Sea. (That lock installation is quite impressive when viewed up close)
So if the farms shut down, who is going to maintain the drainage canals and the pumping infrastructure to maintain the current sea level/arable land??
Would not be surprised to see traditional windmills replaced with ic engine-driven pumps.
Makes perfect green sense.

Wasn't EC telling us last week that nitrogen fertilizer turn to nitrates/nitrites in the ground and poisons the ground water? So, it's not global warming, its the water causing cancer. Well, that's how I remember what European Conservative posted.
But some alternative must exist. Cow pies? Ugh, that's methane. OK, something. C'mon. What about the old honey buckets the Japanese used to use for their rice paddies? How about finding a way to remove nitrites from the water?
Or else what will kill us? Starvation, nitrites in the water or global warming? I think starvation would be the quickest way to kill masses of people. So did Joe Stalin.

Killing masses of people seems to be the goal, Abu.
[PJMedia] It happened recently in the Italian town of Sora. As workers were putting up Christmas lights in the town center, a man ventured by and began screaming, "holy shit!Allahu akbar." Everyone present was terrified, contravening the American media dictum that "holy shit! Allahu akbar" is an entirely benign phrase that shouldn’t worry anyone. How did these Italians get so Islamophobic?
The Italian-language publication FrosinoneToday reported that the onlooker’s shouts of "holy shit! Allahu akbar" as workers put up Christmas lights and lit them caused "real ’moments of fear,’" and that "once he was gone, having literally terrorized everyone present with the equally classic exclamation associated with terrorism, the young man continued to rail against the lights."
Why was everyone terrorized? The phrase "holy shit! Allahu akbar" is routinely translated in the English-language media as "God is great," a resoundingly uncontroversial phrase by any standard. In reality, however, that is a mistranslation. "holy shit! Allahu akbar" actually means "Allah is greater," a subtle but important difference. Rather than simply being a proclamation of the greatness of the divine, "holy shit! Allahu akbar" is actually a proclamation of superiority: what is being said is that Allah, the God of Islam, is greater than your god, or your government, or your atheistic belief system, or your society and culture, or anything else that you may love and admire. Whatever it is, Allah is greater.

[ZERO] Sunlight is the best disinfectant - unless you're Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler - who scrubbed evidence of a meeting with former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton from his calendar, along with key details of a meeting with Billionaire leftist-operative George Soros.
He also concealed September 21 meetings with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and former Bill Clinton White House official-turned-DC consultant, Minyon Moore.
Gensler, a former Goldman Sachs executive, Obama administration official, Clinton's 2016 campaign CFO, and FTX associate, essentially had two calendars. His public calendar showed that on Aug. 7, 2021, he only had a staff meeting, while his private calendar lists a meeting with Hillary Clinton, Fox News reports.
Thirteen days later on Aug. 20, 2021, Gensler's public calendar does list a meeting with Soros, but the agenda was hidden. His private calendar reveals that the meeting was held to discuss an upcoming WSJ op-ed Soros was planning to write in which he slammed BlackRock for launching investment products for Chinese customers, while also applauding the company's ESG policies.
[American Thinker] Former Eco Health vice president Andrew Huff, who worked with the Chicoms at the Wuhan Institute of Virology lab, has authored a new book, The Truth about Wuhan, which exposes the conduct by Anthony Fauci and other American officials, who, without doubt, provided American funds for gain of function research on the COVID virus. They then covered up that what was made in the Wuhan Lab was released, intentionally or accidentally, causing the world pandemic and millions of deaths and injuries. Dr. Huff is right to claim that his book exposes the "biggest U.S. intelligence failure since 9/11."
RedState had been on the gain of function scandal as early as May 2021 and was one of the first to write about it. It's no wonder, then, that RedState's Bob Hoge offers a good, brief summary of the key information in Dr. Huff's Book, along with his own commentary. The following is my summation and commentary.
A company called Eco Health funneled money from Fauci to the Wuhan Lab for gain of function virus research in the period leading up to the breakout of the COVID-19 virus. That was why Dr. Huff, a virologist and an Eco Health vice president at the time, worked in the lab at Wuhan.
As much as Dr. F. & the CCP controlled lab is to blame for this "claimed accident" likely deliberate release.
.
We must remember he could not have accomplished this without much, much higher authorities knowing and funding it.
[Dawn] Technically, Pakistain has not defaulted on its debt because it hasn’t missed — or even delayed — any payment to its creditors. Yet it certainly has fallen into ’arrears’.
For example, last week, the global International Air Transport Association complained that Pakistain was second among the top five markets that have restricted or stopped foreign airlines from repatriating their ticket sales revenues of nearly $225 million to their home countries. So, technically, we haven’t defaulted but simply fallen into arrears.
This is just one of the many examples of how the country’s central bank is struggling to protect its liquid foreign currency reserves, which were reported to have sunk to the four-year low of $6.7 billion on December 2 following the payment of $1bn Sukuk bonds.

Sounds like their leadership needed to have a brainstorming session to figure out a way to produce a good or service of some kind, somewhere in some fashion. I have never bought anything with a made in Pakistan sticker on it. Frankly, if I found something with that sticker, it would probably make me nervous. To my knowledge they don’t export anything other than emigrants and chaos. I might be wrong, maybe they are making bikes for Tajikistan or providing online tech support services to Laos. Regardless, lending them cash was a mistake for all concerned.

[PJMedia] Not content with politicizing the FBI ...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time... to the extent that it participated in the frame-up of a sitting president and investigated angry parents at school board meetings as "domestic terrorists," Gestapo chief Merrick Garland ...Attorney General of the U.S., who classifies indignant parents as domestic terrorists. The is the respected legal scholar Obama nominated for the Supreme Court... is now taking his act to the international stage: the irredeemably corrupt and compromised FBI is now probing the killing of a Shireen Abu Akleh, a Paleostinian news hound for Al Jazeera, despite the fact that even the State Department has determined that her death was accidental. The government of Israel investigated and took responsibility for her death, saying the Israel Defense Forces killed her but also found that it was accidental. And now a new documentary offers compelling evidence that the Israelis didn’t kill Abu Akleh at all; the Paleostinians did. Either way, why is Garland investigating?
The Washington Free Beacon reported Wednesday that "a watchdog group," the America First Legal Foundation, "is asking the Justice Department to turn over all internal documents related to its decision last month to launch an FBI probe into Israel’s accidental killing of a Paleostinian-American news hound." The Free Beacon notes that "Israel conducted its own investigation in the matter with cooperation from the U.S. State Department and determined that Abu Akleh was accidentally killed by a stray bullet fired by Israeli soldiers. While the State Department said it was satisfied with Israel’s probe, the DOJ decided to involve the FBI after a cadre of far-left politicians in Congress pressured it on the matter."
There it is. The relentless Leftist ideologue Garland is pandering to the administration’s far-Left, anti-Israel base, and his actions have not gone unnoticed. Sen. Ted Cruz; ...US Senator from Texas. Republican contender for president in 2016, his stiff and abrasive manner earned him the title most hated man in the Senate. After a close win over Beto O'Rourke, who tried to out-Lastino him, he grew a beard and let his biting wit shine through. Cruz's comments have been known to leave life-threatening wounds at better than forty feet... (R-Texas) said that Garland and "everyone involved in this disgraceful stunt" should be "investigated and then either fired or impeached." Reed D. Rubinstein, the America First Legal Foundation’s senior counselor and director of oversight, declared that "this underhanded and legally indefensible ’investigation’ demonstrates, yet again, how thoroughly the Biden administration (aka the Wilmington comorra) ...knaves, footpads, and adjusters employed by the Biden Crime Family. They leave a trail of havoc everywhere they turn their attention, be it the nation's borders, the Keystone XL Pipeline, or epidemics, sometimes on purpose, most times through sheer arrogant ineptitude. They learnt this stuff in college, you know... has corrupted and politicized the Department of Justice."
Indeed. And it’s even worse than that. While the Israelis have taken responsibility, French filmmaker and investigative journalist Pierre Rehov, who has produced multiple documentaries about the jihad against Israel and related issues, has produced a new film, Lies and Tears, that goes into depth about exactly what happened on May 11, 2022, when Shireen Abu Akleh was killed. What Rehov found is disturbing and suggests that both the U.S. State Department and the Israelis failed to take crucial evidence into account during their investigation, evidence that actually exonerates the IDF and points the finger at the Paleostinians to whom Garland is pandering.
The Lies and Tears website points out that "since 1990, 2658 journalists have been killed in the line of duty." However, there is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened... this one was different: "None of them has had the media coverage of Shireen Abu Akleh. The well-organized campaign launched by the Paleostinian Authority around her death has almost no precedent." While Garland’s politicized FBI will be looking to establish that the killing was not accidental, as the previous investigations have found, "the film shows that at such a distance no one could see the ’press’ sign on Shireen’s bulletproof vest. Paleostinian button men were firing at Israeli soldiers from all directions."
What’s more, the witnesses whose testimony was broadcast around the world by a gullible and complicit international media were compromised: "the ’witnesses’ who were at the scene and first to accuse Israel of murder are claiming to be impartial journalists. They are, in fact, propagandists of the Paleostinian Authority, as the film clearly shows."
Rehov obtained the analysis of a forensic specialist and sound analyst that found that the shooter was actually 20 meters north of the position of the Israeli forces and thus could not have been responsible for shooting Abu Akleh. He also found that there were genuine witnesses who were never previously interviewed until they spoke in Lies and Tears: "Witnesses, including one of the ’journalists’ who was near Shireen Abu Akleh at the time of the tragedy, mention the presence of button men in a house not far from them. These testimonies have never been taken up by the media. They describe ’snipers,’ but the film formally demonstrates that it was impossible for Israeli ’snipers’ to have been in these positions. There were men shooting at the journalists from the buildings. They could not be Israelis. So, who were they?"
Merrick Garland’s FBI is unlikely to be interested in that question. Its agenda is clear. But thanks to Pierre Rehov, the truth is coming out about the killing of Shireen Abu Akleh. And Americans can hope that the America First Foundation’s suit will help put an end to this corruption in the FBI once and for all.
